Thanks, everyone.
Her surgery is Wednesday, Aug 20 and the catherization is Tuesday, Aug 19. I probably won't be online for a while, as she will be in ICU at least 5-7 days, and who knows how long after that before she is released. *sigh* Wolf-Q, want to come play scrabble at the hospital with me? 
She had a congenital problem and it was beginning to restrict her blood flow and it restricted her on what she could and couldn't do.
That is exactly what my mom is going through, except her heart problems were caused by rheumatic fever as a child.
"We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare and the love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made" - M. Facklam
"We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle
"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
